Abstract
The present disclosure provides a multi-component mixture separation system including a distillation column including a first section and a second section separated by a partition wall, and a phase separator receiving a lower discharge stream of the second section and separating the stream into an aqueous phase and an oil phase, and refluxing a portion of the separated aqueous phase or oil phase to the first section, in which the first section includes a chimney tray provided on an upper portion, and the first section is fed with a feed stream containing three or more components to separate high-boiling point component to a lower portion, and a gaseous component moves to the second section.

A multi-component mixture separation system, comprising:
- a distillation column including a first section and a second section separated by a partition wall;
- and
- a phase separator receiving a lower discharge stream of the second section and separating the lower discharge stream into an aqueous phase and an oil phase, and refluxing a portion of the separated aqueous phase or oil phase to the first section,
- wherein the lower discharge stream is discharged from a bottom of the distillation column,
- wherein the first section includes a chimney tray provided on an upper portion of the first section, and
- wherein the first section is supplied with a feed stream containing three or more components, and the first section is configured to separate the feed stream into a gaseous component and a high boiling point component such that the high boiling point component descends to a lower portion of the first section and the gaseous component moves to the second section.
